[slm] can any of you techies guide me as to how i can get a link to my UltraGuest.com guestbook on my blog.

http://www.ultraguest.com/?id=1095343959

http://timbuktu58.blogspot.com/

It says in the UltraGuest Help to use this code:

[<a href="http://www.ultraguest.com/?id=1095343959">View Guestbook</a>]
[<a href="http://www.ultraguest.com/?id=1095343959&sign=1">Sign Guestbook</a>]

exactly where do I paste this code?

dumb, ain't I? but really, where does this code go?

and do I have to make any copies of some files before attempting to make these change?

help will be highly appreciated

I thought I will write out the code for the template in my blog, and then hopefully someone will explain where I have to put the code for the add-ons. It is all Greek to me. I thought I had figured it out, by looking at the code for Sitemeter given near the very end of this post., but my efforts have not borne fruit. Instead I get syntax error.

OK here is ze code for the template, below the horizontal line:

wlm,

try to put that code they gave you right before: 

move it around in the code and see where it shows up on your page, then you can decide on the best place to put it and stick it there

thanks jannah. It worked, after many attempts, in which the computer told me it could not find the server, or the page had been moved.

probably to do with the Blogger or guestbook servers or programs.

anyway, it is working fine now.

It appears right at the end of every post. For the moment, I will leave it there.

Have a Bebzi, or better still, have a bar of chocolate. I keep a stock in my fridge. :)
